well I'll say this the chris pratt -shaped silence in that second mario movie trailer was deafening
hello y’all I know the queue’s been arunning on fanfic this month -- it’s national novel writing month and I’m dedicated this year to writing All OC Blorbos and Nothing But the Blorbos, and my mental health has been as a yo-yo in the hands of an angry bored six year old of a fae bard
so basically I hope to be posting more ficcy writing stuff here in the next few weeks. I’m trying to bring more creativity back into my life with joyful FORCE for once and hope to share that with y’all soon
oh no, it’s “celestial event in my farming sim tag” season again
y’alllll grad school is killing me but I’m kicking and biting back
I’m still alive and hope to one day actually write fanfic again
thank u to those of you who’ve stuck around -- I think of this community regularly when I’m deep in grad school depression and need to remember being peaceful
anyway I’m not dead, thanks for sticking around
folks, with the new story of seasons game arriving tomorrow (!!!) and my semester ramping up, I’m going to go into a bit of a hiatus -- I can’t imagine that I’ll have time to play the game until May, and I want to avoid as many spoilers as possible.
so, I’m going to go semi-dark -- I’ll start getting into the tags and being more active again once I’m able to get into the Poot a bit.
however, in the meantime... I might take some fic requests? See my brand spankin’ new fic request page for more info if you want to request something. Send me a prompt, a ship, a scene, whatever you want to see written out, and I’ll try to get to it!
see y’all in may!
so I guess I’m at least a little back from the dead
lots has been going on, but once again, I arise, and I’m hoping to be more present
I got into a doctoral program this fall (!!!) so I’m not sure yet how much that will impact me, but I’m going to be posting more here -- reblogging, and trying to make some Memes, and working up to taking fanfic requests again. I’m also going to start trying to get a longer term project going, but I don’t want to jinx it by announcing a project before I have my feet under me again.
thank you all for still being here.
hey y’all, a quick update on me
it’s been a much more frantic, panicking, busy six months than I anticipated; turns out graduating my MFA would leave me in a weird emotional state, plus some personal stuff I’d rather not get into right now
unfortunately, and some of you probably already saw this coming, I don’t know that I’ll be able to do my intended liveblogging playthrough of the Rune Factory series. at least, not now -- I may do playthroughs more slowly, over time, and I’m still planning on playing through them all at some point in the future. when I do, I’ll do my best to post things here, like snaps and such, but I’m just not going to be able to do the structured liveblogging sort of thing I was planning on
I’m really sorry, folks. I just do not have the space and time right now to devote to a project like that. I really wish I did.
in the meantime, though, I’m going to be trying to return this blog to it’s regularly scheduled reblogging and posting. I’ll also start doing requests again, so if you have a request, or you sent me a request that I never posted, I’ll take a few now and try to get them posted in an actual timely fashion
thank you all for still being here, and I’m sorry I’ve let y’all down.
love you bunches <3
y’all I’m so pumped about RF5, and RF4 coming to switch
if this post gets 200 notes, I’ll dig out my copies of Rune Factory, buy RF2 and RF3, and I’ll do a liveblog where I play all the Rune Factory games in order
Well that does it! Looks like I'll be doing liveblogs of the Rune Factory games! Stay tuned for more details; my Master's thesis is due to my committee on Wednesday, so after that my life will calm down significantly and I can get this started. Let's see if I can play through these games before Rune Factory 5 comes out!
Now to come up with a snappy tag for the liveblog... Rune Factorauntie? Auntie Factory?

Y'all this semester has been killing me but I'm still alive and struggling
In other news my husband decided to start a harvest moon game and of course I am having him play animal parade
He named his farmer Issac with stars around it and thinks it's hilarious that the characters can just SAY the stars, leading him to conclude that his character is an Eldritch horror living among other horrors. He called his farm Ryleh. With stars. 🌟 Ryleh 🌟
I'll keep y'all posted of any other funny updates - in the meantime, I'll stay alive during my thesis year. I love you all and hope to be back soon
Red, Purple, and Gold!
ooh thanks for sending!!
Red: What type of writer’s block do you experience the most?
Whatever the kind is where you have like a ton of ideas but only when you’re far far away from notebook/computer and then you sit down and there’s just that frustrated feeling of the idea being gone and it doesn’t even matter because you could never have really done it justice anyway
Purple: Which of your characters would become your sworn enemy?
Hmmmm well of my fanfic, I probably would actually hate Allen in real life -- I don’t have much patience for “I act like an asshole but wait!” I never do the ‘waiting’ part because um Excuse kindness is Free
Gold: Do your stories usually contain lessons or morals?
Nope, not in my fanfic nor in my original stuff -- I’m less interested in Teaching Things and more interested in Emotional Responses.
me emerging from a depression funk and trying to return to Doing Things like I heckin said I would
hey y’all! my semester is wrapping up and it nearly killed me, but I’m going to be much more Present here soon and start, like, writing again!
